For the Chicago debut of the Arcanto Quartet recital last year, someone on the first row dropped his phone on a hard concrete floor. This was at a Mandel hall without any carpeting. That sharp sound resonated through the hall and totally ruined the poignant ending of Smetana's 'From My Life' for me.
What bothers me most tho is audience hacking coughing as well as for those who are eager to applaud prematurely. Some tunes just need a silence to reflect.
I did hear some noise at the ending but I have heard worse!
I loved his Strauss ( much better than his Telarc CD with Atlanta) and enjoyed it more because it was so much more dynamic and expansive than Haitink/CSO's Alpine Symphony performance just a week earlier.
I still prefer Sinopoli/Staatskapelle Dresden set, tho. ( it's a bit more pictorial )
Follow Ups:
The noise sounded like some dropped a handbag, and it was close to where I was so it sounded pretty loud. But it was not as bad as the cell phone that went off as the last chord of Otello was ending at the Lyric several years ago.
The most annoying.
Poor Cedric Tiberghien's debut concert was marred by not just one, THREE cell phone going off at the beginning of the program and he had to start over THREE times.
He was pretty laid back about the whole thing unlike some prima donna for sure they would have walked out.
